Default Can someone help me find the boating website instead of this political site

I stumbled on this political website by mistake. I am actually looking for the
Rec.Boats website. Can anyone please direct me to it?

Let's say you notice a subject header like this: "Which anchor style for
this kind of bottom?"

Now, let's say you have no interest in that message? How will you handle
that situation?

Unfortunatly, I think this should be kept as a boating website, not a place to
debate political issues! I'm sure that political sites out there abound. This
is how I would handle it : boating stays with boating !!!!! political stays
with political !!!!! S o u l d I b e m o r e e x p l i c i t e ?

Yes. Be more explicit about what you'll do when you see boating messages
which do not interest you. Can you master the difficult art of not looking?

If you're driving down a busy commercial strip looking for a hardware store
and see a dozen tanning parlors, none of which interest you, do you pull
into their parking lots and tell them they don't belong there? Or, do you
simply Not Look? :-)

This guy gives me a great idea... since I own a trawler and three
sailboats, and am not in the slightest bit interested in catching fish,
I think I'll butt into every single fishing conversation on this
newsgroup. I'll tell everyone what they can post and what they can't.
When that's all straightened out, I'll start telling them what to think.

I could be more popular than ol' George Bush Jr. himself!

But it would be a lot of work. Maybe I won't after all.

I'm really not interested in trawlers. :-)

Do you not fish from any of those boats? What kind of trawler?

Can Mr Kanter master the difficult art of being able to tell boats from politics?

Like all good captains, some of us are able to multitask. You know: Discuss
the family, keep the fishing lines out of the props, and continually remind
the visitors where the coke syrup is for seasickness.
